From Our Blog 2 Yours
Hey girlies!
Libby here with another Friday morning blog challenge for ya! As the mother of a pre-teen girl (yikes!!! Did I just say PRE-TEEN? How is that possible???? Sorry… side-tracked), I’m cracking up at the things that she is into right now. For example, she loves watching American Idol with me. This week, her heart was completely broken when Jason Castro got sent home. There were tears. And attitude. Her world had officially come to an end.
So, this made me start thinking about the guys I was “in love with” as a kid. I remember vividly having my walls plastered with posters of Kirk Cameron and New Kids on the Block. I was infatuated! I mean how could you NOT be when you look at these cute faces? LOL!
So who were YOUR childhood crushes? Including a pic isn’t required, but we do all love a little eye candy. So hook us up if you can!
For those who are new to the challenge, here’s out it works. Each Friday, we offer up a prompt on our blog. You then post your response on your own blog, and then link us up here in the comments. Everyone who participates will earn a Sweet Rewards point!

Well, I was never really like that (that I remember)… in love with any stars. But if I had to pick, I would say Mark-Paul Gosselaar, aka, Zack Morris and of course his co-star Mario Lopez, or AC Slater.

This is easy peasy! I have always been in HOT LOVE with Jon Bon Jovi… I remember staring at long haired posters of him when I was in 6th grade and thinking someday maybe I will marry him… LMBO!!! 20-something years later I’m still drooling… although ok with the fact that we’ll never be married. 🙂

Well I don’t even think I can remember way back that far. I wasn’t into anyone untill my 20’s and it was Jonny Depp in 21 Jump Street. I remember that no one could call me on Sunday nights when I watched the show. I had pictures of him all over my bulliten board. I even watched him in “Cry Baby” LOL because I loved him so much. Funny how some one can be even better with age.

oh, man. The memories! My friend and I were totally infatuated with NKOTB. She liked Joey and I liked Jonathan. I also was REALLY ‘in love’ with Jonathan Brandis. Do you remember that show on NBC, SeaQuest?? It was my favorite show because of him and because i wanted to be a marine biologist, so a show about a bunch of exploring scientists on a submarine was pretty cool, lol.

Love your choices, Libby! NKOTB (especially Joey) and Kirk Cameron were definitely 2 of my favorites. NKOTB was plastered all over my walls as a teen!
In my pre-teen days it was Ricky Schroeder from Silver Spoons!

Most of my crushes were on people I knew, not celebrities. If I had to think back and come up with someone, through, Kirk Cameron and a few of the guys from Beverly Hills 90210.
